Oh Harry

[neophox]

Leonard is showing great promise...so near...scoring a hattrick almost...

Harry’s getting in the right places though, already a masssive upgrade on Gally. 

Yep, young lads are gonna miss chances. The fact he is in the right position is the main thing.

Also, with those passes from Wharton, if we were to get a decent striker they would be banging in 20 goals a season easily.

 

[Beanie01289]

as Leonard grows in this side he will score loads

[ItsRoverZ]

Should be 3 or 4 here for us, Wharton is magic 

Hope we don't rue these missed chances,  I'd bring Ennis on for last 10

[CheshireRover]

Adam Wharton is the best player in the league. Ridiculous.

Not comparing them skill-wise, but he reminds me of Andrea Pirlo, that casual languid style, always seems to be in space and can beat a player without using pace.

I always thought the same of Tugay too. I watched a thing a while ago on Messi at Barca and they analysed how he created significantly more space barely moving and choosing his moments compared to everyone else running about. Sign of a special player for sure.

Makes it look effortless I’ve heard a few times. Almost looks like a lazy style, but is just so calm on the ball. 

[bluebruce]

Thought the goals would hugely boost Leonard and Markanday's confidence. Then Markanday got subbed off and Leonard missed two good chances, so guess we'll see what their character is like going forward.

Incidentally I'd have brought Dolan off instead of Markanday, and I'm a fan of Dolan. Guess Hedges only really plays on the right though.

JRC is knackered.  

[CambridgeRover]

Their manager sent off

[NeilInBristol]

All getting a bit nervy out there.

[WacoRover]

Bye, Carlos…

[moerpho]

Good game…..my nerves are absolutely shot

[Bbrovers2288]

Why wasn’t wharton starting, Jdt can jog on if he isn’t going to play our best player 

[Blow-in]

Dolan is some moron.

Fitness issues.

Good play by Leonard

[CambridgeRover]

Need to upgrade on Dolan urgently.

Awful decision maker

[Beanie01289]

Great game of football tbf

[CD_93]

I do enjoy Szmodics. Always up for it.

[Tugay-is-God]

Jeez, these eight minutes of added time or whatever are gonna be tough to sit through.

He is so awful. We haven't replaced BBD or dack though and we still need more so sadly we are stuck with him.

What is he doing with his shorts?

Every time the camera is on him he is pulling them up like a pair of Y-fronts.

[yankfan]

Excellent foul by hedges.
